First Saturday

Posted on September 5, 2020September 5, 2020 by Michael Antaya
Sr. Lucia praying at Our Lady’s image.

It has always been the pious practice of the church to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary on Saturday. However, in 1925 Our Lady once again appeared to Lucia dos Santos of Fatima at her convent in Pontevedra, Spain. There, Our Lady requested the institution of the Devotion of the Five First Saturdays in reparation to her Immaculate Heart. Our Lady made a great promise to assist those at the hour of death, all the graces necessary for salvation if on the first five consecutive Saturdays they: 1.) Go to sacramental confession. 2.) Receive Holy Communion. 3.) Say five decades of the Holy Rosary. 4.) Meditate for at least five minutes on the twenty mysteries of the Holy Rosary. Stay close to Our Lady.
